    Thanks, I agree that I strive for more than basic.

    You’ve achieved nothing.
    You’ve memorized liberal talking points from your safety zone.

    So a ladder is all they need? Got it. I guess everyone has a 30 foot ladder laying around. Those are easy to carry from Venezuela...

    Why the obsession with immigration? I'm serious. Are there statistics which indicate the obsession is justified? Is America worse off and, if so, in what way. I don't want open borders, but we don't have them. Of all the ideas for immigration reform - some excellent - building a wall is, in my opinion, the worst one. And,will anything satisfy the far right. Remember 2013? A bipartisan bill (fashioned over many months) was proposed only to be shot down by the infamous Freedom Caucus.

    It's almost as if the far right fears Hispanics diluting white blood (that will sound familiar to some of you).

    Weirdly enough, my position on immigration doesn't align with liberals in practice nearly as much as it aligns with libertarians. I find my position mostly aligns with the Cato Institute rather than traditional liberal groups or thinkers.

    You see, they have these things called hardware stores in Mexico. That would mean that a person could pick one up there. Or, somebody from Mexico could buy one and charge a small amount to use their ladder.

    Prison walls are also guarded 24/7. Who would want to guard this area 24/7, especially when it's 120 degrees plus in the summer? And what do you think the cost would be?

    You tell us.
    All you do is show us reasons to take everyone who dares make the trek to our border.
    Tiresome.

    How does doing background checks and denying people who have a criminal history taking everyone? Also you didn't answer the question, but asked another question in response. A classic way of avoiding the truth. This pic represents part of our border. So does the one below. So again, tell me, how much will it cost to man this part of the wall 24/7 along with the Yuma sand dunes?

    The status quo isn't feasible. We can't keep having people coming here. Our system will implode. That's the reason. The wall works in Israel. I posted the data showing it worked. Yes, a significantly larger undertaking for our southern border but it can be done if done correctly.

    Such a humanitarian. And the first time an innocent person is killed, you become the murderer you are so afraid of!

    Sure, I can see it now. "Excuse me, can I borrow your ladder? Why? Well, I need to try to cross into the US. How will I return it? Good question. Come get it from the Border Patrol after I cross over."

    I'm sure that will happen...

    Skippy, take a lap.
